User Name

A user name is used to manage the device remotely, for example through SSH, Telnet, or the Web interface. To gain
complete administrative (super-user) control over the device, the highest privilege (15) must be specified.
Note
Only the administrator (super-user) with the highest privilege level (15) is allowed to manage the device
through the Web browser interface.
For more information about the privilege level, see the CLI Reference Guide.
The configured user name is entered as a login name for remote management sessions. To configure user name and
privilege level, enter the command at the system prompt as shown in the configuration example:

SNMP Community Strings

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) provides a method for managing network devices. Devices supporting
SNMP run a local software (agent). The SNMP agents maintain a list of variables, used to manage the device. The
variables are defined in the Management Information Base (MIB). The MIB presents the variables controlled by the
agent. The SNMP agent defines the MIB specification format, as well as the format used to access the information over
the network.
Access rights to the SNMP agents are controlled by access strings and SNMP community strings.
The device is SNMP-compliant and contains an SNMP agent that supports a set of standard and private MIB variables.
Developers of management stations require the exact structure of the MIB tree and receive the complete private MIBs
information before being able to manage the MIBs.
All parameters are manageable from any SNMP management platform, except the SNMP management station IP
address and community (community name and access rights). The SNMP management access to the switch is disabled
if no community strings exist.
